North Korea ignores nuclear outcry
North Korea has responded to worldwide condemnation of its latest nuclear test by saying it was a “first response” to US threats and warned of unspecified “second and third measures of greater intensity”.
The United States and others called the test a violation of UN resolutions. Even North Korea’s only major ally, China, voiced opposition. But the North’s Foreign Ministry said the test was a “self-defensive measure” that does not violate any international law.
